Libya has decided to block the UN plan that would send 200 more soldiers to guard UN staff members, diplomats and officials operating inside the north African country, according to Agence France-Presse.[2]

Last month, the UN Security Council (UNSC) approved requests that would allow an additional 235 troops to be deployed to Tripoli due to "mounting threats" of an attack on an UN mission.

Originally, Libya agreed to the plan, but then recently decided that supporting the plan would be creating "outside interference" in its fragile country situation.
